Formulation of moment equations for rarefied gases within two frameworks of non-equilibrium thermodynamics: RET and GENERIC
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this work, we make a further step in bringing together different approaches to non-equilibrium thermodynamics. The structure of the moment hierarchy derived from the Boltzmann equation is at the heart of rational extended thermodynamics (RET, developed by Ingo Müller and Tommaso Ruggeri). Whereas the full moment hierarchy has the structure expressed in the general equation for the nonequilibrium reversible-irreversible coup- ling (GENERIC), the Poisson bracket structure of reversible dynamics postulated in that approach is a major obstacle for truncating moment hierarchies, which seems to work only in exceptional cases (most importantly, for the five moments associated with conservation laws). The practical importance of truncated moment hierarchies in rarefied gas dynamics and microfluidics motivates us to develop a new strategy for establishing the full GENERIC structure of truncated moment equations, based on non-entropy-producing irreversible processes associated with Casimir symmetry. Detailed results are given for the special case of 10 moments. This article is part of the theme issue 'Fundamental aspects of nonequilibrium thermodynamics'.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
